I propose the following patch (against 2.6.2).  This makes us
discover ACPI serial ports before PCI ones.  The ACPI ports
tend to be built-in, and discovering them late means their ttyS
names move around if PCI serial ports are added or removed.  I
think it makes more sense to have relatively predictable and
consistent names for the built-in hardware.
Applied, thanks.
